<p>I no longer like being dressed up and looking perfect for the paparazzi. What I love about it (being a star) is dancing," said Raveena Tandon, arguably one of Bollywood's most talented actresses, in a previous interview with Femina. Not much has changed since she said this in 2019. Go to her Instagram handle today and you will find that reels of the actor gleefully dancing inundate her feed. In fact, her video with the Norwegian hip-hop dance group, The Quick Style, on the song that's become synonymous with her - Tip Tip Barsa Paani from her movie, Mohra (1994) - sent the world into a tizzy and renewed our love for that song that generations have been obsessed with. But if you think the actor is living in throwbacks, you couldn't be farther from the truth.</p>
<p>Raveena Tandon made her Bollywood debut at the tender age of 16. She instantly became the face that was responsible for setting the cash registers ringing with not only comedy movies like Andaz Apna Apna, Dulhe Raja, Gharwali Baharwali, Bade Miyan Chote Miyan - a genre that very few women had meaningful roles in back in the day - but also critically acclaimed hits like Mohra, Shool and Satta. Upon returning from her hiatus, taken during a period in which she shifted the focus on her personal life, she took on roles that required her to break out of her mould instead of retiring to comfortable ones. Case in point was the Netflix web series, Aranyak, a dark thriller in which she plays a cop who's investigating a murder. The show became an instant hit and is, in fact, renewed for Season 2 that's due for release this year.</p>
<p>Raveena was a pivotal part of the film industry in a time when women-led movies. were a rarity. Despite this, she thrived and managed to make a mark for herself. In April this year, she was recognised for her contribution to the film industry with a Padma Shri, over three decades after she started working in movies. If that's not a sign of someone who is formidable, we don't know what is.</p>
